[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-6781) Constant fields that are not final

[RH Bugzilla Integration (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6781?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12762755#comment-12762755 ]

----------------------------------------------

Brian Stansberry <brian.stansberry at redhat.com> made a comment on [bug 926050|https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=926050]

Analysis by Stephan Mueller shows that the AS codebase includes a significant number of public constant fields that are missing the "final" keyword, which could allow incorrect or nefarious code to change them. This task is to fix these.
As part of the work for a few cases I'll reduce the field visibility.
